You could probably name some, but it wouldn't bolster your case for 'evil Republicans taking advantage of innocent Democrats', so you won't.


MAGA
Alan Mollohan. We dumped him and he was none too happy over it. Granted, his replacement is no better.

It's funny to see the Trumplings come in here and blame "both parties" when their side does something bad. When someone on the left is caught doing something wrong it suddenly reverts back to "only lefties engage in this sort of behavior" with them.

It amazes me that they still think no one notices their hypocrisy.

Good point. I agree.

Good. The worst politicians in recent decades have been the neocon republicans. Now if they can find something on Paul Ryan, I will be really happy.

It's too obtuse to be called hypocrisy...it's so way past hypocrisy to the point of insanity. How can they ever expect to be taken seriously?

Wrong. Hypocrisy is noted on both sides.

I guess Trump doesn't want any more of his buddies getting arrested.

Isn't this another attempt at obstruction of justice?
